Here’s
a “not so missing” 1977 card for a two-game Major Leaguer, former White
Sox catcher George Enright, who despite nine years in the Minor
Leagues, only got the briefest of Big League action:
Enright finally made it up to the Majors in August of 1976 after five
seasons of Minor League ball, then getting into his second, and last,
game about a month later, going 0-1 at the plate while spending seven
innings behind the plate.
Sadly for him that would all he’d get, as he’d be back in the Minors for
1977, where he’d stay through the 1980 season before retiring for good
at the age of only 26.
Nevertheless, he got to taste that Big League magic for two games, more than any of us can say. Cheers George!
